Oh, I thought I heard the old man say,

Leave her, Johnny, leave her.
      G          D        G          D
It's a long hard pull to the next payday,
         D               A    D
and It's time for us to leave her.

Oh, leave her, Johnny, leave her.

Leave her, Johnny, leave her.
      G          D        G          D
From the Liverpool docks to the London yard,
         D               A    D
and It's time for us to leave her.

A                  D

Now the skipper was bad but the mate was worse,
A                  D
Leave her, Johnny, leave her.
      G          D        G          D
He would cut you down with a swipe and a curse,
         D               A    D
and it's time for us to leave her.

A                  D

Now it was rotten meat and moldy bread,
A                  D
Leave her, Johnny, leave her.
      G          D        G          D
You would eat it or you would starve to death,

And it's time for us to leave her.

Leave her, Johnny, leave her.
      G          D        G          D
For now those pumps are all pumped dry,
         D               A    D
And it's time for us to leave her.
